Learn Basic CSS by Building a Cafe Menu - Step 12

Tell us what’s happening:
Hey guys,

I’ve been stuck in this part for some time, and I can’t seem to figure it out.
I’ve also tried to /h1> after closing the alignment property, and even letting the h1> open.

Can you give me some hints on what I’m not seeing ?

Thank you in advance.

PS: I’ve read another post on this, and still couldn’t figure it out; and, I haven’t searched for other style properties to get “inspiration”. I’m embracing this freecodecamp ecosphere, let’s say.

  **Your code so far**
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
  <title>Cafe Menu</title>
  <style>
  <h1> </h1> {
    text-align: center;
  }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <header>
    <h1>CAMPER CAFE</h1>
    <p>Est. 2020</p>
  </header>
  <main>
    <section>
      <h2>Coffee</h2>
    </section>
  </main>
</body>
</html>

Ahh, you don’t want to use html tags in CSS. In the example:

element {
 property: value;
}

You would replace element with the name of the element. No tags, just the name of the element.

Up in the head section where your styles are you do not use the

tags. You just use h1, like this:
h1 {
text-align: center;
}

Hey @thecoderguy, we try not to write actual solutions in here and instead try to help people find the solutions for themselves.

Thanks again bbsmooth, I did not know we shouldn’t use the answers to try and help. It looked as if one of the few that I tried to help was having a really hard time of it. I did not see any other way to try and help.
Thanks for the info.
